After our amazing success in the spring, winning the local SCABA contest and taking the L&SC First Section Championships in Stevenage, we spent the summer working hard on the piece for the National Finals in Cheltenham (Excalibur by Jan van der Roost). The hard work paid off and we came away with a very creditable 4th place, beating 15 other bands who had all been successful in their own areas (including 8 bands who have already been promoted to the Championship section!). Well done to all, and special thanks to MD, Will Wilkins, who brought a really tight and musical performance from the band.
